If he did not consider the general situation of the world and only proceeded from political influence, the emperor immediately accepted King Yan's idea.

He also said: "Well, since Ruier herself has taken a fancy to Xie Pu's daughter, and Xie Pu's official position and character are still reconciled, then it will be fulfilled for him!" Even if there is anything unsatisfactory after getting married, Rui'er is the prince of King Yan, and it is easy to accept a concubine. The side concubine can assist in the affairs of the palace, and I can also give a few more beauties to serve him, and our own children will always be happy. ”

King Yan smiled, noncommittal about this, and turned to business: "Brother Huang has already decided?" Do you want to officially canonize Chonglin as the prince of King Yan? But the imperial brother had already released a rumor and planned to succeed the third prince, but now he suddenly changed the candidate, how to explain it to the courtiers? If Chonglin's identity is restored first, there will be courtiers who pick and choose his background. Although he will be the only heir under his younger brother's name in the future, and the name of the son of this life will not be able to run, but this kind of thing will not be settled in a year and a half. The younger brother still has border military affairs and territorial political affairs to deal with, and it is impossible to delay in the capital for such a long time. Even Chonglin is not suitable to stay in Beijing and face the criticism of others! ”

The emperor pondered for a moment, and then said: "You take the child back to Beiping first, and only say that it is your son." If the son of the world is not the son, wait for the agreement between the court and the central government, and it is not too late to issue a decree to canonize him. Until then, you and Rui'er can do whatever they want, as long as they protect him, and if anyone jumps out to make trouble without long eyes, you just have to fight back, and you don't have to worry too much. ”

As for the third prince Zhu Jue, the emperor has now dispelled the idea of succeeding him. Not to mention that Xiao Mingzhu and his flesh and blood are more important than the son born to him by Xiao Mingzhu's sister, the suspicion on Xiao Mingyu alone also makes him feel uncomfortable. If he found out that Xiao Mingyu had indeed done those evil things, let alone choosing a rich and worry-free future for her son, he was afraid that he would feel impatient even if he saw their mother and son more, and directly regarded them as the most disgusted people in his life, alongside Queen Cao and the crown prince!

Moreover, although Xiao Mingyu is the first evil possible, the third prince she gave birth to was not born back then, and he was innocent, and the emperor also really felt sorry for him for a few years, and taught him carefully, intending to let him inherit the unification, but this kid disappointed him too much, always doing something that he thought was smart, but he was not smart enough to get to the point, and he loved to make some selfish means that could not be put on the table, and there was no one at all. How can such a person become a prince?!

The emperor couldn't help but sigh when he thought of his five sons.

The eldest son, Xiao Rui, has only now revealed his background, but he has missed the best opportunity to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, so he can only return to the Zhu clan as the son of King Yan, but it is impossible for him to call his father openly in his life. This kid is certainly smart and heroic, his character is also passable, and he also values love and righteousness...... If you are not qualified to become a prince, you will not talk about everything. However, he will be able to inherit the Yanwang Mansion in the future and take on the heavy responsibility of guarding the border, which is also in line with his character and ability. If he had grown up in the palace since birth and had not been a prince, he would have almost such a future.

The second son, Zhu Ying, the prince of the East Palace, was born to Empress Cao, and under the upbringing of the Cao family and the Cao family, he once had a well-behaved time. The emperor was dissatisfied with his disobedience to the Cao family in the past, and when he found out that he would also have conflicts with the Cao family, he still had a little hope, but he didn't expect that he didn't listen to the Cao family's envoys, but instead listened to the wind in the ears of the concubines around him - the woman was still a disgraceful family member of the criminal family - and did many ridiculous things, which disappointed the courtiers. The emperor has completely lost hope in him since then, and has long intended to abolish him, but he can't find a reason for the time being, so he can only solve the Cao family first.

The second prince, Zhu Ying, was born to the Zhaoyi Lin family, and was also quite popular with the emperor when he was a child. Helplessly, the Lin family was born from a humble background, his vision was not high, and the son he raised was also brave and ruthless, narrow-minded, and when fighting with others, he often ignored the overall situation in order to achieve his goal. Such a person, being a prince of peace, is still easy to cause trouble, let alone be the king of a country! The emperor was worried that once he succeeded to the throne, the frontier would be troubled in the future, wasting national strength in vain, and useless to the community, so he kicked him out of the list of candidates for the prince early, and deliberately made the illusion of loving him and valuing him, just to stimulate Empress Cao and Cao's family.

The fourth prince, Zhu Luo, is a good boy, although he is still young, he is rarely smart and clever, and he knows what to advance and retreat, not only can be reasonable, but also knows how to take care of the overall situation. Although he looks at it now, his temper is a little too good, and his actions are always a little immature, but he is only a little old! The emperor was confident that as long as he taught him for a few years, these shortcomings could be overcome!

Moreover, the biological mother of the fourth prince is the least prominent of the four concubines - then there is no need to worry about the relatives being big in the future. He himself has the most harmonious relationship with Yan Wangfu, and he did plan to succeed Yan Wangfu, but now although the fate of father and son is gone, if he can form a good brotherhood with his eldest brother Xiao Rui because of the good relationship with Yan Wang's family, and the brothers will work together in the future, they will be able to govern the country more peacefully and steadily.

The emperor felt that his wishful thinking had played well, and when he looked back at the third prince, he felt more and more impatient. He couldn't help but complain to his younger brother King Yan: "Brother Fenyang Wang brought his son into the palace yesterday to complain, fortunately, I made it clear in advance and asked to be retired, otherwise my old face would be lost to the third child!" He is not happy to marry the Lan family as his wife, I know it, isn't it because the Lan family has a bad reputation? But her bad reputation has nothing to do with the third child, in fact, it is true and bad, he understands in his own heart, what is there to dislike about this? ! The Lin family picked the daughter of a military general for the second child, and the crown princess is the granddaughter of the old man Xue, both civil and military, but after the founding of the country, the family of the royal relatives and nobles did not even have a princess, and they had already cried in front of the queen mother and me I don't know how many times. I thought that it would not be a big deal for the third child to marry a noble daughter, anyway, if he went to Beiping in the future, the gossip in Beijing would not be able to spread. I didn't expect him to promise well on his lips, but behind his back, he made such a selfish trick that could not be put on the table......"

He snorted twice: "In order not to marry the Lan family, I insisted on planting a green hat on my head...... What kind of stinky problem is this?! Does he still have a father like me in his eyes?! ”

King Yan coughed lightly: "Third Highness...... It's also a child's family that is not sensible. He is bent on marrying his cousin, where is he willing to marry someone else? Xiao Mingde's concubine is unlikely to be a side concubine. ”

The emperor suddenly remembered Xiao Mingde again, and said with a sinking face: "I don't know what Mingde is thinking now!" If he really has no intention of marrying his daughter to the third child, why didn't he marry his daughter early?! He treated my Rui'er so harshly, did he really not have the idea of waiting for the third child to become the prince and then push the boat to become the future ruler?! Mingzhu has been gone for many years, and in his heart, I'm afraid it's not as good as the living sister who has already become a concubine, right?! ”

King Yan was happy to see the emperor rectify Xiao Mingde's family, but he had no intention of interfering in it, so as not to attract the suspicion of the imperial brother when he turned around. He looked at it again: "Your Majesty, when my younger brother entered the palace, I met the palace people around the Queen Mother, and asked my younger brother to bring Chonglin into the palace and give the Queen Mother a look, what do you think?" ”

The emperor was stunned and was silent for a while before he sighed: "Let the queen mother see you...... It's just a matter of seeing. Before the child leaves Beijing, don't alarm too many people for the time being, let alone let the Cao family notice him, it will be unfavorable to him...... Whether it's the name of the clan or the announcement of your background, I will wait for you to leave Beijing before doing it. You remember, you must protect him well, and don't let him be wronged. ”

King Yan solemnly saluted: "Brother of the courtiers receives the decree." ”
